Make sure your hair is curly enough-you might want to use spiral curlers or sponge rollers. Then rat it out by backcombing, and make sure you have enough volume-if you use extensions or falls, make sure you put them in AFTER you backcomb. Then pile it up, folding it under and pinning it at the top to get the volume. make sure it isn't too "done" looking-the woman just got out of prison! Add a spray of silver or white hair color along one side if you want-if you use an extension here, make sure to rat it up too so it matches. (although you probablt won't be able to use it for anything afterwards, since they don' comb out very well. Use a cheapy if you want to rat it so you don't waste your money.) Add lots of dark eye makeup and a nasty smile, and you're good to go. Hope this helps, and note me if you have any more questions!
